Wow Maria!!!!!! This poem is wonderful... and the picture totally completes the amazing effect. 101 stole my favorite line... though most all the lines can be my favorites I so adore this poem. With your permission its going in my bulletin board as of Monday morning( full credit to you of course :-) )... wish I could figure out a way to have that lady in the picture shine like in your blog there... hmmm.. maybe if I put some glitter :-) Anyway, I digress... This poem is fantastic my friend... Thank you so much and you have a wonderful week-end as well. xoxo

Always telling you it’s cold outside

Mariaki
It’s not always easy to dispense with ego and spend a moment (or more) truly within ourselves – appreciating the Light that guides us and the light that we are – but when we do it doesn’t feel quite so “cold outside”.
(You’re getting pretty darn good at the picture thing, Mariaki. Isn’t it fun to find images that enhance our words…)

Captivating!!
i wanted to remain gazing at this beautiful picture. your words are filled with gentle wisdom. 'stepping outside the being box' - i did enjoy that line.oh,tis true,we prefer to stay in our little comfort zone where we feel snug and warm, but actually achieve naught.the ending is wonderful.thank you for the read and your words to me.have a great week-end.
